more update

Evan's wrapping up surgery - he's off of the heart/lung machine! Dr. Devaney was able to REPAIR! not replace his mitral valve (yah!). He didn't end up doing anything with the aortic valve, but we don't know why yet... more news to come once we talk with Dr. Devaney (thus far, was just the nurse practitioner). Dr. Devaney will escort Evan up to the PICU in about an hour, then will come talk with us (around 5:30). They'll get Evan settled, and we'll be able to see him an hour later (around 6:30).
